When festival season comes round this year it’s all going to be about George Ezra – he’s a campfire troubadour and no mistake. Famously ditching uni in favour of writing and recording his early work it’s a decision that’s paying off already – he’s just been named in the final 5 of BBC’s Sound of 2014 for crying out loud. A mixture of influences new and old from both sides of the Atlantic are all at work here from Dylan and Paul Simon to Billy Bragg & another TicketWeb fave, Sweet Baboo. Thankfully you don’t have to rely on our meagre descriptions of George’s song-smithery, you can download Budapest for FREE above! (Updated 08/01/14)
